Well, I almost had my 1st official nervous breakdown today and the school year hasn't even started. JumpStart has really been taking a toll on me and it's only an 8 day program. For the 1st time in my 11 years of teaching, I am actually scared about the group of students coming up to 4th grade. They struggle tremendously with basic math and number concepts. I feel so bad for them and for some odd reason, I feel as if I'm not well equipped enough to help them. I'm sure I'll feel differently in the morning but for now....all I can do is pray that God will grant me the wisdom and knowledge to work with these students the next 3 days of the JumpStart Program and the upcoming school year.
In addition, I also know that I have an awesome team this year that will support me in any way. Thank God for that too!
